For some reason he hates us, always scores against us and can already see him absolutely rag dolling Gart and Jensen. Would stand him in front of Roos for every set piece too, bound to score Calling Van Veen a big clogger is underplaying how good he is. Link to comment

There is not one player in my boy's 2014 team that kicks it as badly as him. Stop talking shite ffs 2 Link to comment

elephantstone78 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 3 hours ago, Tord31 said: Best game at Rugby Park is surely that looping Mixu header over Bobby Geddes No way torderino. It was a barnstormer of a midweek SC QF in feb 2020. Killie 3 - Dons 4 One of the ten best games I’ve ever seen. Highlights included: Them scoring an overhead kick, a 25 yard wonder strike, hitting the post with another long range thunderblast and winning with one minute to go in both normal time and extra time. Sam Cosgrove smashing a header against the bar and then with ice water in his veins scoring a last minute penalty after some Ferguson wizardry. Considine scoring one and, with some dazzling wing play, in the final minute of extra time when everyone was preparing mentally for spot kicks crossed it into the 6 yard box for them to score an own goal. Cue bedlam in the away end. The Killie tv guys are understandably heartbroken at the end and our hoodoo over them continued. How times have changed. 2 1 Link to comment
Schapenneuker Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 3 hours ago, ERNIE said: Killie seem to have found a manager that can organise a defence.... McInnes is doing with Killie, what he did with us...he's taking a group of players, organising them into a system that they're all comfortable with, making sure that individually they're all doing a job, and eaking out 1-0 wins in a series of stubborn performances. It's hard to see how our disorganised shambles of a defence can stop Killie (or any team) from scoring. Killie will just wear us down, especially on that garbage surface. 2 or 3-0 I'm afraid.

He's suited to this league due to his strength and physical nature, hardly the most cultured striker to grace our league though.

He always looked dangerous and was a pain in the arse. Aye hes physical but always looked like he could play a bit too. Defenders must hate playing against him. Especially ours. He’s a step-up from the likes of Curtis Main anyway. Link to comment

When half our support will still championing Ramirez after he spat the dummy, Van Veen was one of the strikers from our league I said I'd rather have in our team than him. Link to comment

donswin1983 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Entertainment on show, coupled with ‘fun’ and elongated VAR decisions. Kilmarnock to play on the break and edge it 3-2. Our central defence to get bullied, like usual, by whoever plays up front for Kilmarnock, whose goals will all come from set pieces. Miovski with a brace for the Dons and DM to look smug, tanned and arrogant on the sidelines throughout, with justification! Not going. Hell of a long journey and we’re pish. Link to comment
a don in oz Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Think Van Veen is a really good addition for Killie. They're going to be solid at the back and he's a guy that although he's a physical lump can create a chance out of not much and as others have said likes a goal against us. Hopefully though the improvement we saw against Hibs continues with an actual improvement in the defence as well. If we play at the back like we did against Hibs though then it could be a bad one.

Footballs coming Rome Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Killie look good this season. We look average at best. Can’t see us winning this one. Link to comment
Broken_Glass Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 I quite like the look of the keeper Kilmarnock have on loan - Will Dennis. Granted I don't see a lot if Killie but from what I've seen in games against us, tv, highlights etc he looks pretty assured and confident. Link to comment

fine-n-dandy Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Darren Mackies back header over Alan Coombe was a better header than Harpers. That came from GK’s throw out as well. Which is far more impressive than a kick out Link to comment
